To be fair there’s no way TS asked the club to go out and get him the likes Okunbor, Pele and Nu Brown. It’s been apparent for a good few years (likely after the failure of big name Reynolds) that the club has been using third parties to ‘recommend’ them potential Aussie ‘gems’ from the NRL fringes and lower grades.
He did come across so laid back about recruitment and player contracts almost negligent the way he talked about if deals happen they happen etc. Hopefully Cartwright has a bit more drive about him and more importantly has his finger on the pulse over there so we don’t need those third parties.
Was Nu Brown and Okunbor fringe? think they were both in and around the first team. They just turned out to be bad signings. I'm on-the-fence regarding Hoy, but think he was in the 17 a good few times over there. I'm not an NRL connoisseur, so no doubt a mile off.
